THE LEGAL-ISH PART
EMPLOYMENT POLICIES
They’re not just the law,
they’re how we roll here.

EMPLOYMENT POLICIES
Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity

An honest appraisal. Respect at all times. These are deeply held core
beliefs here at Alorica.
Alorica is a federal contractor/subcontractor, meaning we are a company
that does business with the federal government. Alorica supports the
government’s requirement to take affirmative action to make sure that
applicants and employees are not treated differently due to race, color,
religion, sex, national origin, age, marital status, veteran status, sexual
orientation, condition of mental or physical disability, genetic information,
gender identity, including status as a transgender or transsexual individual,
pregnancy and/or sexual orientation. Seriously, we walk the talk on this.
It is the policy of Alorica to provide attractive and rewarding employment.

Our recruitment and personnel policies are administered on the basis of
merit, regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, marital
status, veteran status, condition of mental or physical disability, genetic
information, gender identity, pregnancy, sexual orientation or any other
factor not related to job requirements and sound business practice.
Employment decisions will be made on the basis of each applicant’s
qualifications, experience and abilities.
The continuous development of an inclusive work environment yields great

returns, not just in our organizational effectiveness and efficiency, but also
to Alorica’s bottom line. We take affirmative action to employ and advance
employment of all persons.

The objective of this policy is to ensure that
individuals are treated consistently and according to
the law throughout the employment process at
Alorica. This policy applies to all aspects of the
employment relationship, such as recruitment, hiring,
training, promotion, compensation, benefits, transfer,
discipline, lay-off and dismissal.

EMPLOYMENT POLICIES
Communications and Media Policy

(Sorry, your 15 minutes of fame won’t be during
work hours.)
Policy Purpose: Maybe you wanted to be a reporter,
or a spokesperson, or even a member of the
paparazzi, but that’s not why we hired you. There are
lots of reasons why a company must require that
employees follow the corporate media policy. Alorica
has put in place the following Communications &
Media Policy in order to make sure (1) that clear and
factual information is given to the public on behalf of
the Company, (2) that you or any other employee of
Alorica are not victims of inaccurate reporting, and
(3) to make sure that any privacy and confidentiality
concerns of both you and our clients are protected.

existing employees are responsible for reporting any
arrests, charges, or convictions to Human Resources
within five (5) calendar days. Because of the nature of
our business, the public and internal impact of illegal
activities, including illegal conduct outside of work,
may result in an employee’s reassignment or
corrective action up to and including termination.
Not all arrests or convictions will disqualify an
applicant or employee, however, the failure to report
any arrests, charges, or convictions may result in
corrective action up to and including termination.

Business Ethics
Remember that stuff you learned in elementary school about being honest, using common sense, and always
treating people the way you want to be treated? That is still true today. And while we don’t mind if you don’t
want to share your fruit snacks, there are some things listed below which are really important for you to know.
Introduction: This section reaffirms the importance of high standards of business conduct. Adherence
to this Code of Business Ethics and Conduct by you, and all employees, is the only sure way we can
merit the confidence and support of the public and shareholders. In observance of this code, as in other
business conduct, there is no substitute for common sense. Each employee should apply this code with
common sense and the attitude of seeking full compliance with the letter and spirit of the rules
presented. It is incumbent upon you, as an employee of Alorica, to perform satisfactorily and to follow
Company policies and comply with rules as they are issued or modified from time to time. If you have
any doubts regarding a questionable situation that might arise, you should immediately consult you
